Transcriptomic changes across subregions of the primate cerebellum support the evolution of uniquely human behaviors

2025-03-04

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Compared to other primates, humans display unique behaviors including language and complex tool use. These abilities are made possible in part by the cerebellum. This region of the hindbrain, comprising the flocculus, vermis, and lateral hemispheres, has expanded throughout primate evolution, particularly in great apes. Given the cerebellum’s architecture—differing in connectivity, neuron cont...
